WAS (Worked All States) - Presented by the ARRL for working and verifying each of the 50 states. The basic award can be endorsed for various bands and modes. I have endorsements for QRP, CW, and 40 Mtrs as shown above on the scan of my original award from 1964. I'm also eligible for endorsements for 30, 20, and 15 meters, but haven't applied for them. My ultimate goal is to get all 50 states on each of the 10 HF bands (160-10 mtrs now also including 60 mtrs) with QRP. I would like to thank those hams who have helped me to increase my total by listing them in the table below. Calls in red are those who have not QSLed yet either with a regular card or via the ARRL Logbook of The World (LoTW). State and band abbreviations in blue are those I have completed (with or without 60 mtrs) on the HF bands. I'm also listing the VHF band 6 meters, separate from my HF totals. The first table includes a total of the states 'verified' by the LoTW, as well as a total for either/or card/LoTW since both have equal validity for award applications. I hope everyone will sign up for the LoTW. Although using the verifications for awards is not free, it is still a considerable savings over the traditional QSL card method. See the ARRL web site for details.
